Here's a more realistic version of Apple's Siri ad with Scorsese

Apple recently scored Martin Scorsese to its list of celebrities doing ads for the iPhone, and in a nutshell it painted a pretty rosy picture of Siri helping the famous director out while he’s riding a cab in New York. In reality? Chances are Siri won’t understand half of the things.

If you’ve tried Apple’s intelligent assistant, you already know that often times it can’t quite understand what you mean. Try speaking a bit faster or having a slight accent and you’re doomed to try and try and try.

So folks over from AppJudgment have edited Apple’s original ad to better reflect reality. Sure, they’ve added a twist of humor, so you definitely shouldn’t miss it - hit play below to see it.

Yeaah.. at work and one of my patients didn't show up for her appointment... her daughter wanted to call the local senior center to see if she's there:

Daughter:"Find me the number for the Norwalk Senior Center"
Siri: "I do not know where you are and cannot complete that request." (something to that degree)
Daughter: "Why does she need to know where I am?"

Hahaha I've done this so my times as well. It feels so good doing it to my father in law because that man is the biggest isheep I have ever met. We were going to the grand canyon and he was driving and I can tell he kept looking at his phone and I realized he was looking at the maps. So I said," hey Tim I GOT THIS! Navigate to the grand canyon.Tim just follow her lovely voice shell get you there." He then proceeds to put his iPhone away in his pocket.

actually most people have been getting pretty pissed at apple buddy. They come into my store all the time and say why doesnt my siri work like the comercials i can ask the same questions they do and get no response. They ask me if they can sue apple how apple sue everyone else. I even had one customer say he pushed the siri button the same time scorsese did and there is no way that comercials is accurate and we should take it off the air.

Haha an apple ad that tells the Truth! Even the 'sequences shortened' Part is in larger font at the end. Most of the ads applea uses if cast with the light of truth would resemble this. The power of advertising

That was funny, minus that guy in "jorts" what the hell are those? S Voice is garbage too, tried it and it's slow as molasses. Now G Voice search that thing is relatively fast and understands you a bit better than most. Want to see a video with some of those assistant apps in the play store, my favorite is Assistant, a bit funny and smarmy but pretty good and faster than some others I have tried.

I use Siri fairly often. Its very good for appointments, alarms and reminders. It's actually faster than typing. I also use it in the car a lot when driving. Texting with it is accurate until I use a Bluetooth. Over my Bluetooth sometimes I have a hard time. Also sometimes it will have a hard time recognizing uncommon names.
